URBNSURF

URBNSURF

Overview

URBNSURF Melbourne is one of Australia’s most ambitious and distinctive developments, the country’s first urban surfing park delivering world-class surf experiences for all ages and abilities, and just minutes from Melbourne Airport. URBNSURF is a multi-use precinct, blending sport, retail, hospitality and education. A key architectural feature across the site is the use of converted shipping containers and modular structures, repurposed into highly functional buildings.

Key Facilities

Front entry and admissions
Surf Academy facilities
Three Blue Ducks restaurant building

Larnec was engaged to supply personal access doors across these container-based structures, supporting both the functional demands of the site and the long-term durability required in ahigh-exposure, coastal-style environment.

The Challenge

Converted shipping containers requiring doors that integrate seamlessly into non-traditional structures
High-traffic public access, spanning retail, hospitality and education use
A need for longevity, reliability and low maintenance over the life of the precinct

The Larnec Solution

Compatibility with container construction, allowing for straightforward integration into steel structures
Long service life, suited to public-facing, high-use environments
